MTL - Monument of Life and Death-Chapter 50 White scarf

  Chapter 50 White Scarf

  Dapeng glanced at Tongtong’s back, turned his head and asked Daochang Xiang, "How do you know Huatu?"

   "Hua Cong's general experience has been written by her here," Dao Chang kept his promise and handed Hua Cong's letter to Dapeng, "You should also know about it..."

  Dapeng unfolded the envelope suspiciously, and the moment his eyes came into contact with the text, his fingers trembled.

   "It's really a letter from the flower bush... the handwriting of the flower bush..."

  "A letter from my little aunt?" Tong Tong did not know when he returned to Dapeng, "Can I take a look?"

  In the following time, the four of them sat down by the bed under the arrangement of Dapeng, quietly waiting for the adults and children to read the letters of their relatives.

   "How did you get this letter?"

Dapeng's eyes have changed back to the gentle and polite he had when he first met. Tongtong's reading ability is not enough to fully understand the content of the letter, but seeing the full text of "I love you", Tongtong also bowed his head in disappointment. .

   "We have been to Lianshui Village and found the place where the flowers were imprisoned, and found fragments of the letter in the corner of the house."

  The man lowered his head and rubbed the re-adhesive letter paper, "In the corner...it must be hard to see..."

"Alright, the letter was discovered by our companions, and we don’t know where it actually appeared..." Maple Sugar took out the phone and found a few photos. It was dark, and the figure was vaguely visible. "The envelope is me and It was found by the pineapple. These are some photos sent by the other three people, which can find a little clue."

"You..." Dapeng asked suspiciously, "Are you Hua Cong's classmates? I have never seen you before, why did you want to investigate this matter, in such a dark sky, don't you know that Lianshui Village is dangerous? There are girls..."

  A few people looked at each other.

   "In fact, we have been chased by the villagers," Pineapple smiled and said, "We discovered the secret of the village and just escaped from them last night."

   "What is your purpose?"

  "Save people." Xiaolan said crisply, "Save twigs and flowers."

   "There are other innocent people, people caught by the magic claws of Lianshui Village." Pineapple added.

   "But the twigs and flowers are already..."

   "We know," said the Taoist chief, "we are here today to ask you about Xiaozhi."

   "The death of Xiaozhi, everyone here knows about it," Dapeng lowered his head and smiled reluctantly. "A girl from outside the country committed suicide on the mountain. The news here has been rolling for several days."

  Pineapple asked tentatively, "Why did she... why did she commit suicide?"

"Xiaozhi... she has cancer," Dapeng's eyes dimmed. "Her last wish is to find her own sister. You have gone up the mountain, and you should have known about us. That man killed Huatu, Xiaozhi knew about it. After this news, the whole person collapsed. Early that morning, we found out that she was missing. I panicked and felt that something bad was about to happen. After searching for shops under the mountain, we started walking up the mountain, halfway up the mountain. Behind one of the trees, twigs were found."

   Xiaolan hesitated and said, "Is Xiao Zhi... hanged?"

  The man nodded, "With her favorite white scarf..."

   "Did twigs leave anything?" the Taoist asked.

  The man's eyes flickered, "No... Xiaozhi walked cleanly, probably because he knew that his days were running out, and Xiaozhi didn't like to cause trouble to others all his life..."

  "You should know that that man is dead, right?"

   "This is retribution," Dapeng's eyes suddenly became fierce, and even Tongtong, who had been quietly listening, showed a hateful expression, "He should have died long ago, and their entire village should be damned."

   "You know about Lianshui Village, why didn't you call the police?" Pineapple asked with frowning.

  The man raised his eyes and looked at the pineapple helplessly, "Of course we called the police..."

  You only need to say half of the words, and everyone will understand.

  The chief Taoist stared at the Dapeng and asked, "Do you know how the two people in the village died?"

   "Two people?" Dapeng reacted for a second, then shook his head, "I don't know, this matter came to my ears later."

has a problem.

   Xiaolan looked at the Taoist leader, and when he saw the Taoist leader, he also found a contradiction in the words.

  The news of the killing of two villagers spread to the foot of the mountain through a peddler. Dapeng claimed to have heard about it at the foot of the mountain. Why did he only know that the man was killed and did not know the death of another villager?

  And the hawker only saw the bodies of the two people from a distance, and didn't know who they were. How did Dapeng know that the man who died was the man?

  Unless...

  Maple Sugar also discovered the problem and asked Xiang Dapeng, "Are you sure? This news came to you from the people under the mountain?"

  Dapeng's gaze became less calm, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he insisted on nodding.

   "Does Twig know the news?" Pineapple asked.

  Pineapple asked the important point. When Dapeng heard Xiaozhi's name, he obviously became fidgety.

   "Little branch, she...knows..."

  Tongtong quietly tugged at the corner of his father's clothes, Dapeng took up Tongtong's little hand, and seemed to shook his head slightly.

  Dapeng is hiding something.

  Tongtong saw his father's reaction and understood something, so he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

   "I'm a little sleepy," Tongtong's voice was dull, "Big brother and big sister, I'm going to sleep."

  Is this an eviction order?

  Everyone stood up wittily and walked slowly outside the door.

   "I'm sorry, the child is sleepy..." Dapeng said as he opened the door, "But this matter is settled. Lianshui Village is really dangerous. You should stop taking risks."

   "We have one last request." The Taoist chief walked to Dapeng with a sincere expression, "Can you lend us a flower item?"

  Dapeng was puzzled, "Why do you want flowers?"

"Dapeng," said Dao Chang lowly, "We know that you still have something to say. Although we are curious, we believe that you have difficulties. From the very beginning to the present, there is only one purpose, which is to save the flowers and Xiaozhi, I know you also believed our words. Many things are not so credible if you tell the truth. We will definitely return the things to you as they are. You will believe us again, okay?"

  Dapeng stood in place, obviously experiencing inner struggle.

  Tongtong sits on the edge of the bed and whispers, "Dad..."

  Dapeng looked at Tongtong and at the three luggages placed side by side.

   "Come here."

  Dapeng said and walked to the white suitcase in the middle. Several people followed closely. Seeing that Dapeng carefully put the box down, opened the zipper of the box, neatly folded clothes appeared in front of everyone.

  Dapeng took out piece by piece, Xiaozhi’s clothes were mostly white, and each piece was cleaned white and clean.

  Finally, after taking out a coat, a snow-white wool scarf appeared.

  Everyone was stunned.

  Is this...

   "You take it..."

  Dapeng's fingertips trembled a little, stroked the soft fluff of the scarf, then pinned it out and handed it to Daochang.

"This is Xiaozhi committed suicide..." Dapeng thought for a while, and swallowed the remaining half of the sentence. "It was originally a scarf of the flower bush. After the flower bush disappeared, Xiao Zhi has been taking it by his side looking for the flower bush. I probably know you What do you want to do, take this scarf, if you can, tell Hua Cong, her sister, and us, miss her."
